    Sounds like the company needs to create a lower level position at lower pay to get the less qualified people in. Then you can promote from that pool when you need the higher level positions.

      Don’t quote me on this but I think you’re cooking! We need a name for a role that makes it easy for people to enter our industry, maybe we can call it something like entry level!

        🤣

        The issue with him is people with standard exp can’t get standard roles due to too many overqualified applicants.

        But yeah. Opening up entry level roles for people with standard exp sucks.

          You’ve got it. If I need someone with logistics experience do I take someone straight out of school who did some a co-op term with a county emergency service or someone with 15 years in the military maintaining supply lines. And if I want to prioritize civilian experience there is a whole pack of police, paras, and firefighters looking for first retirement at 40 who can leverage that experience.
